Chapter Five: Retribution
-
“Woah dude what the frick”, Pandora said and flapped over to him grabbing his shoulder lightly with her sharp talons and tugging at him.”Calm down bro”.
-
Jack let go when Rose pulled on him, stopping to realize what he was doing.
“S-sorry. I didn’t mean…”
-
*Pandora lets go and hovers in the air*
-
Rose shook her head and smiled at Jack a bit, trying to comfort him, “You were in an emotional state, it is alright.”
-
Calypsa looks at Faye, and says, “My dear, you need help. You have at least 37 screws loose. These ‘scum’ are all that you have left. Well, somewhat. Your family isn’t exactly dead… But we will get to that later.” Calypsa sits down at the table, sipping tea. “Feel free to pour yourself some and sit down. This is a long story…” Calypsa sighs again. “And I can’t tell you all of it.”
-
Jack hesitantly sat down across from her, handing the tea to Rose.
“O-okay.”
-
Rose simply sat next to Jack and put the cup on the table, unwilling to be near her sibling.
-
Calypsa sighs. “Where to begin?”
-
“Begin with how you know Ody. Then, tell us what happened that led up from then…to now.” Jack said, his voice slightly shaky.
-
Faye laughs maniacally to herself, thinking a bit… Oh I’ve lost so much more than that over the past few months!! Dealing with these people… that’s at least seven screws right there! Then, I lost everything I everything I ever wanted to have… My OGA membership was lost by half, so there goes another fifteen screws. Then the other half was gone too! That alone totals to 37! Not to mention…after watching my entire family die before my eyes? Double that… And now I’m teleported to a ship when I thought I’d finally be at peace… add on another twenty five. And should I even mention the countless ships I’ve lost? Oh yes Caly~ I’ve lost many Many screws. Faye chuckles manically again.
-
Rose gave Jack a slight hug, “Take a few deep breaths and calm down…”
-
Calypsa nods, and begins. “Odysseus is an extremely complicated individual, and extremely old. 17 Million Years Old, by my estimates. I don’t even know most of his past… But he came from an alternate universe. The Nameless One brought him here… for a purpose not even I understand.”
-
Calypsa looks at Faye, her face growing dark as she stands up. “You DARE count your loss, you stupid girl! YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND LOSS!” Calypsa stops. “Not yet…” She looks at the others. “Where was I?”
-
<i>Jack gave her a half-hug, listening to Calypsa’s story. </i>
“If you want to know Ody’s story before the Nameless One brought him here, all you have to know is mine. Then, it’s complete.”
He stared at her strangely when she stood up, shouting at Faye. She sat back down, asking where she was.
“Uh, Nameless One brought him here for purposes you don’t know.”
-
Apollo was dazed by the attack on Harvin, but still well enough to not fall over. “ Calypsa, you’re still alive? I thought we lost you at hell.”
